    Biggest parts for me were Brainstorm being Voyager so he'll hopefully have a decent head(master).

    BOMBSHELL!!! Forget scaling with the deluxe Kickback(for now) the whole Insecticon gang will be together again.

    Superion , this is so awesomely going to suck. Well not the figures but hunting down 2 sets for me and my son but will be worth it.

    Only other question is where does Hasbro want my direct deposit to go to now?

    I agree. But, I'm just relaying what I hear, nothing more. Well, little bit more, since I 've added my own scepticism. So, yeah.

    Sorry, it's after 5 am here and I misread bank as tank for a second and thought you were claiming to be about to turn into the Hulk or something. :D  There's some great news in here for me though, maybe not so much for the bank account and shelves but I shall manage. ;)

    Corporations always blame the economy when they want to enact cost cutting measures and increase their profit margins. It's the way of things now. Don't believe me? Do some research. We still have sub par quality toys, with sub part paint apps, toys which are smaller in size, yet cost more than the more complex and better detailed toys from six years ago.

    Also, let's logic this out. The RoTF line did the best, and was closest to the recession. During a recession, people spend less money, yet RoTF's line did quite well, very well in fact. So, where did Hasbro suddenly lose a lot of money due to the economy on the Transformers Brand? Because clearly it wasn't during the recession based on the financial data we have.

    Ask me that again, after you look at the movie generations lines, and the reveal that a lot of the stuff coming along the way movie wise is repaints of other items.

    LEADER CLASS ARMADA MEGATRON HOLY SHIT MUH CHILDHOODS

    I can't even. Please keep the Armada coming, Hasbro. Even if it's just one toy per year, I will buy all of it.
